He asks where Brooklyn at! Right here, in the greatest city in the world, New York City.

Enzo says the only time he gets that is when he has a mic in hand. The difference between Enzo and others is that he’s always played the hand he’s been dealt. They want to put him in a shark cage. Enzo says he’d be better locked away in Riker’s, because right now he’s the Al Capone of this microphone. He says they’re lucky it’s a shark cage, not shark tank, because if he had a dime for every time anyone like Mark Cuban wanted to invest in someone like Cass, he’d have zero dimes. Enzo says he’d put his worst day on the mic against Cass’ best day in the ring. Enzo says Cass is 7 ft tall, and that’s a good hand to be dealt, but his hand didn’t have a heart in it. Enzo begins to talk about what Big Show will do tonight, but (finally) he’s cut short by Cass’ music.
